I'm no military historian or engineer, but I have been
down the tunnels at Cu Chi and I'd rank it as one of
the most memorable experiences of my travelling
days.
How did they build them? They dug. A lot. They got
down there and dug. It should be pointed out that the
tunnels are not large in diameter. The Cu Chi tunnels

The Cu Chi tunnels are the most famous ones but, in
my opinion, not the most amazing. The Cu Chi
tunnels had more than one entrance/exit. A favorite
tactic of the Viet Cong would be to let the Americans
pass by one entrance (which they did not detect) and
then crawl up from below behind the Americans and
surprise them from the rear- very effective.

Depends on the size of the tunnel systems. The
smallest on takes a day to accomplish. The biggest
one in Dien Bien Phu has never been done, by
hundreds of soldiers attacking the French army in
1954. Its total length may be few miles altogether.
There have been a tunnel contest in Vietnamese
army. A tunnel can be made in less than half of an
hour in the contest. A soldier can fit in this tunnel so
that the enemy from 40 yards away cannot shoot at
him, and he can shoot his enemy while the enemy has
no tunnel to hide.

Chi tunnels during the Vietnam War?
That during 10 years of intense coverage of the war
in Vietnam, there was no focus on these tunnels. (By
intense, I mean the nightly weather report included
Vietnam).
